Hi Gmar,

I think Ethel's parents, James Wright (d: 8th Nov 1944) & Mary Jessie Wright (3 June 1944) are buried at Sarina.

Hi Gerry/Gmar,

Can I just say how grateful I am for all your help.

As I have said to Gerry, I feel relieved/happy that my great uncle Rutherford - whose start in life was so unpromising - grew up to make a home and family for himself and lived to such a ripe old age.

I only hope the cemetery at Sarina is not so huge that it will take a long time to find any graves!

Grateful thanks,

David

Hi,
Rutherford Palmer was my grandfather. He resided at 5 Langdon St Sarina with my grandmother Ethel Mary Wright. They had one son, my father Thomas James Palmer who married Betty May Hartley 9 April 1966. Thomas and Betty Palmer reside in Mackay. Their children are Helen Jean Munro (nee Palmer) and James Rutherford Palmer.
